People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chaos, Jade Void Palace.

The Primordial Celestial Venerable sat high on a cloud platform, with auspicious clouds of the heavens floating above his head, hanging down with countless purple wisps of energy, exuding boundless auspiciousness.

His eyes were lowered as he looked towards the primordial world, a smile appearing on his face.

As one of the Three Pure Ones and a direct descendant of Pangu, he always held himself in high esteem.

In his view, in terms of talent, comprehension, fortune, and background, only a handful of people, such as Taiqing and Yuanshi, could compare to him.

But Yang Xuan's appearance forced him to admit that, in terms of talent and comprehension, Yang Xuan was superior.

Yuanshi, being a sage, possessed a magnanimous heart. Although he had no complaints, he secretly made comparisons.

He may not be as good as Yang Xuan in terms of comprehension and fortune, but when it comes to teaching disciples and imparting the Great Dao, he is still quite confident.

Today, as the teachings are being spread to all living beings in the primordial world, those who choose to go to the Jade Void Palace to listen to the teachings, if not on par with the Purple Cloud Palace, should certainly be among the top, easily surpassing Yang Xuan.

Over the years, Yang Xuan's performance has been outstanding, showing signs of surpassing his predecessors.

If he could surpass Yang Xuan in teaching and imparting knowledge, it would make Yuanshi Tianzun feel a little better.

Yuanshi Tianzun was particularly concerned about his reputation. Now that nine saints were spreading the word and paving the way for the people of the prehistoric world, he wanted to surpass Yang Xuan in this matter.

Time passed slowly. The ancient road to heaven, formed by the nine sages, contained the power of space. Each step covered billions of miles, greatly saving the travel time of all living beings in the primordial world.

On the contrary, it takes much longer for all living beings in the primordial world to travel to these ancient roads leading to the heavens.

Fortunately, there are now spatial teleportation arrays in various parts of the prehistoric world, and the Ark of the Other Shore can be used for transportation, so it is not too far.

At the same time, these ancient roads also serve as a threshold.

The content of this sermon is about the three realms of Great Luo, Quasi-Saint, and Primordial Chaos.

Therefore, cultivators who have not reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal level have no chance to step onto the Tongwu Ancient Path.

Five hundred years later.

The nine ancient roads leading to heaven have been closed one after another. Those beings with cultivation levels above Taiyi Golden Immortal who intended to go and listen to the Dao have now all arrived at different Hunyuan Daoist temples.

Some of the primordial beings who were unable to enter were filled with regret and despair, but this could only be attributed to their lack of opportunity, and they had no one else to blame but themselves.

Inside the Chaos Jade Void Palace, the clouds and mist in front of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable dissipated, revealing a cloud platform.

Upon seeing this, the numerous cultivators below hurriedly bowed and respectfully said:

"Greetings to the Jade Pure Primordial Heavenly Venerable!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable nodded slightly, gently waved his sleeve, and lifted these people up.

There were a great number of cultivators below. If it weren't for the fact that this Jade Void Palace contained the Great Dao of Space, it simply wouldn't be able to accommodate so many cultivators.

Even when the primordial Zixiao Palace held sermons, the scale was never this grand.

One reason for this is that the number of living beings in the primordial world today far exceeds that during the time when the teachings were given at Zixiao Palace.

Another reason is that the Primordial Celestial Venerable was highly respected, which attracted so many beings to come and listen to his teachings.
The corners of Yuanshi Tianzun's mouth turned up slightly as his gaze swept over the sacred sites of the Western Two Saints, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and other saints.

Relatively speaking, there are more cultivators in the Jade Void Palace. Even in the Eight Views Palace of the Supreme Saint, the number of cultivators is not as great as that of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

This is not because the beings of the primordial world believed that the Sage Taiqing was inferior to the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, but because the Sage Taiqing cultivated the Way of Non-Action.
This path relies too heavily on opportunity and comprehension. Unless one yearns for the path of non-action or has absolute confidence in one's own comprehension, one would not choose to go to the Eight Views Palace.

After looking around, it became clear that even the Netherworld Palace created by Houtu and the Purple Cloud Palace created by Hongjun had a number of cultivators comparable to those of the Jade Void Palace.

This put Yuanshi Tianzun in a very good mood, and his face shone with joy.

But when he looked at the Temple of Fate, his expression stiffened slightly.

On the square of the Temple of Fate, Yang Xuan sat on a black lotus platform, the infamous Black Lotus of Annihilation.

After years of nurturing by Yang Xuan, the Black Lotus of Annihilation had long been restored to its original state, and Rahu was once again suppressed deep within the River of Destiny.

There's no need to hide this world-destroying black lotus anymore; it's good to bring it out and make a show of it.

Beneath the Black Lotus of Annihilation lies a floating dojo, hundreds of millions of feet high, composed of countless cloud platforms.

Cultivators who entered the Temple of Fate took their seats on the various cloud platforms according to their cultivation level, comprehension, and opportunities, moving from far to near and from top to bottom.

Every platform was packed, with a significantly larger number of practitioners than those at the other dojos.

Moreover, most of these cultivators were prominent figures in the prehistoric world, and their cultivation levels were also quite impressive.

Among them, Yuanshi Tianzun saw a familiar figure, none other than Confucius, the disciple he and Tongtian had taught together, and the current leader of Confucianism!
In terms of both quantity and quality, the cultivators on Yang Xuan's side surpass those of the other saints.

This made Yuanshi Tianzun's expression stiffen slightly; it wasn't that he was unhappy, but rather that he felt somewhat displeased.

But then I thought about it again and smiled with relief.

In terms of fame, these veteran sages really can't compare to Yang Xuan.

Even before Yang Xuan attained sainthood, he had already gained a reputation in the prehistoric world that was no less than that of a saint due to his many deeds, such as establishing the Underworld, perfecting the Heavenly Court, and setting up trade routes.

After he became a saint, he single-handedly suppressed Rahu in the depths of the River of Destiny, and his fame rose again.

Moreover, the reason why Bixiao, Shen Gongbao, Jiutian Xuannv and others were able to sever their corpses was because of Yang Xuan.

Even the ability of Styx and Zhen Yuanzi to sever Zhiwo's corpse was inextricably linked to Yang Xuan.

These are all real achievements. Now that Yang Xuan is preaching, more people are going to listen to his teachings, which seems quite reasonable.

After a moment of silence, Yuanshi Tianzun smiled, abandoning any thought of comparison, and addressed the excited and enthusiastic cultivators below:

"Everyone has arrived; today we will begin the discourse on the Great Luo Path..."

Meanwhile, inside the Temple of Fate.

Yuanshi Tianzun did not conceal his gaze, and Yang Xuan naturally noticed it and understood the sage's thoughts, so he shook his head and smiled.

All I can say is that this is very primitive.

Yang Xuan didn't pay much attention and slowly opened his eyes, revealing his figure.

Upon seeing this, the cultivators below hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings to Venerable Yang Xuan (Ghost Emperor of Fengdu, Great Emperor of Fate)!"

Yang Xuan had many titles in the prehistoric world, and the names given to him by the crowd below sounded chaotic and lacked the grandeur of places like Jade Void Palace and Purple Cloud Palace.

However, these people showed no disrespect to Yang Xuan whatsoever; in fact, many of them had fanatical eyes.

Among these people, Yang Xuan also saw many acquaintances.

For example, Confucius, Bixiao, the twelfth month, Shen Gongbao, Jiutian Xuannv, Nezha, etc.

Those who had received help from Yang Xuan in the past, or members of Heaven or the Underworld,

Unless they were certain that the teachings of the other sages were more suitable for them, they would all choose to go to the Temple of Destiny to listen to Yang Xuan's sermon. Yang Xuan smiled and did not speak, yet his voice resonated throughout the Temple of Destiny.

"Please be seated, everyone."

"Thank you saint!"

The millions of cultivators responded in unison, their voices shaking the clouds and mist of the heavens. After bowing, they sat down again.

Yang Xuan looked down, and in the blink of an eye, Bi Xiao, Shier Yue, and the others found themselves at the very front of the dojo.

They looked up and saw that they were only a step away from the cloud platform beneath Yang Xuan.

Even Shi Ji, Ju Ling Shen, Shen Tu, Yu Lei, and others were among them.

They exchanged glances, their faces beaming with joy, their hearts filled with gratitude, knowing that Yang Xuan had never forgotten his subordinates.

But before they could think further, and before they had a chance to express their gratitude, they heard a mysterious Taoist voice coming from above.

"There is a proper order to things. Today, I will first speak of the Great Luo Dao. The Great Luo is..."

As a mysterious Daoist chant resounded, an ancient tree appeared behind Yang Xuan; it was the Enlightenment Tea Tree, a top-grade innate spiritual root.

Even without consuming the Enlightenment Tea leaves, the Enlightenment Tea tree itself still has the effect of enhancing enlightenment.

next moment.

All the cultivators present, whether they were Taiyi Golden Immortals, Daluo Golden Immortals, or even Quasi-Saints, showed expressions of sudden realization and entered a state of enlightenment.

This preaching session lasted for three multi-element periods, covering the mysteries of the three realms of Great Luo, Quasi-Saint, and Primordial Chaos, with each realm being explained in one multi-element period.

Finally, Yang Xuan spent another 50,000 years answering questions from the cultivators before his sermon came to an end.

"Thank you for spreading the teachings, Sage!"

The many practitioners on Yuntai Mountain bowed respectfully.

Among those present at this sermon, many Taiyi Golden Immortals blossomed their Three Flowers on the Crown, achieving the status of Daluo Golden Immortals.

Even more, several Great Luo Golden Immortals have reached the threshold of becoming Quasi-Saints by severing their corpses.

As for the quasi-saints and great powers, they also have a clearer understanding of the path ahead, avoiding many detours and saving a lot of time.

How could they not be grateful for such a blessing of preaching?

It was precisely because of this immense favor that the nine sages of the primordial world opened their altars to preach at the same time, and the doubts they had suppressed in their hearts resurfaced.

Why did all the sages of the primordial world gather together to preach? Is there some unknown secret behind this? After listening to the sages preach, we form a karmic bond, but do we need to pay some kind of price?
Before anyone could think further, Yang Xuan, who was sitting on the Black Lotus of Annihilation, spoke again.

"Are you all wondering if there's some secret behind our preaching?"

Yang Xuan's gaze swept over the Westerners, his expression turning serious, and he continued:

"As you all probably know, when the Great God Pangu created the primordial world, he slew three thousand gods and demons. But these gods and demons did not die, and after so many years, they have gradually revived and returned."

Demon Ancestor Rahu was one of them, which demonstrates the immense power of the three thousand gods and demons.

When their strength is restored and they descend upon the primordial world, it will be a cataclysmic calamity. Under this calamity, all living beings in the primordial world, from the Primordial Chaos Realm to every blade of grass and every tree, will be unable to escape it.

The story of the resurgence of three thousand gods and demons and the cataclysmic calamity that would destroy the world was slowly recounted by Yang Xuan.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone below changed drastically.

Although all three thousand gods and demons died under Pangu's axe, their ability to fight Pangu was enough to demonstrate their power.

If these three thousand gods and demons were to descend upon the primordial world, how could they possibly stop them?
Even though less than 10% of these chaotic gods and demons are of the Primordial Chaos Origin, their numbers are still far greater than those of the Primordial Saints.

Even if the nine sages of the primordial world joined forces, they would still be no match for these chaotic gods and demons.

In an instant, the Temple of Fate became filled with unease, and the atmosphere gradually became oppressive.

Yang Xuan had anticipated this change.

After a while, when they had almost digested the information, they continued speaking slowly and deliberately:
Even in the vast expanse of time, there are still karmic connections!

"In the primordial world, there are still three Heavenly Dao Saints, nine Earthly Dao Saints, and eight Human Dao Saints. You can all rely on your own abilities to prove your Dao and become saints!"

Upon hearing this, the Temple of Fate fell into complete silence.

There are three Heavenly Saint positions, nine Earthly Saint positions, and eight Human Saint positions. These are the twenty vacant Saint positions!

After a brief silence, increasingly heavy breathing could be heard from below.

Disasters are terrifying, but the opportunities within them are even more alluring!
Over the years, apart from the Six Sages of Heaven who attained sainthood through immeasurable merit and the Primordial Purple Qi, only Yang Xuan has obtained the sainthood.

Moreover, Yang Xuan first achieved the status of a Primordial Golden Immortal before the human world granted him the position of saint.

All living beings in the primordial world were wondering if there was still a holy position to be plotted for.

Even after hearing Yang Xuan's account of what happened, the many Quasi-Saints present gained a clearer understanding of achieving the Primordial Chaos Realm, but that understanding only applied to the Primordial Chaos Realm.
They had no certainty about whether they could obtain sainthood.

After all, the Dao Ancestor once said that the Primordial Purple Qi is the foundation of the Heavenly Dao Saints, and there are only seven of them.

Of these, six paths were given to the Six Sages of Heaven, and the last path was divided equally among the Three Sovereigns.

Yang Xuan's experience of becoming a saint is simply impossible to replicate.

Even if their cultivation could break through to the Hunyuan realm, they wouldn't be able to accomplish great things like establishing the Underworld, perfecting the Heavenly Court, or creating a business system, and thus wouldn't gain the recognition of the primordial world.

But now, Yang Xuan tells them that there are still twenty remaining saintly positions in the three paths of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

How could the people present not be excited?
As for the cataclysmic calamity, what are three thousand gods and demons compared to the opportunity to become a saint?

If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening!
But everyone present also knew that having a vacant holy position was one thing, but being able to obtain that position was another.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Gongming bowed respectfully and asked in a deep voice:

"Please enlighten us, Sage, how can we attain the three Sagehoods and realize the Primordial Dao?"

Zhao Gongming's attitude was respectful and genuine. As for the usual "little brother" address, he was not Bixiao, so how could he dare to say it again?
The reason he chose to come to the Temple of Fate to listen to the teachings was that he felt that the teachings of Yang Xuan were more suitable for him than those of the Tongtian Sect Leader.

Through listening to the teachings during these three epochs, he realized that his choice was correct.

Now, hearing about the throne from Yang Xuan, he had a strong premonition that this might be his destiny.

The rest of the group also looked intently at Yang Xuan, making no attempt to hide their anticipation.

Although the Saintly status is not the same as the Primordial Chaos status, in the Primordial World, obtaining the Saintly status means that one's strength is no weaker than that of a Primordial Chaos cultivator, and one can experience the mysteries of the Primordial Chaos earlier, which helps in breaking through to the Primordial Chaos level.

This is why all six Heavenly Saints possess Hunyuan cultivation.

Even the two Western Saints, who owed a huge amount of merit and had the worst aptitude and comprehension, took a crucial step and became Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortals not long after they became saints!
Everyone present knew that as long as they could obtain the Saintly Position, their chances of breaking through to the Primordial Chaos Realm were not only almost guaranteed, but also much higher than if they had cultivated all the way on their own.

The reaction of the crowd below was exactly what Yang Xuan wanted. Only by mobilizing the enthusiasm of all living beings in the primordial world could the merit loans be distributed more effectively! (End of this chapter)
